Nicola McLean thinks I'm A Celebrity... 2025 cast will not see each other often after show ends
Nicola McLean does not think the I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! 2025 stars will see each other often when they get back to the UK because "work life" will get in the way.
Nicola McLean does not think this year's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! campmates will see each other a lot when they get back to the UK.
The 44-year-old TV personality - who finished in sixth place on the ITV Australia-based jungle survival show in 2008 - says their busy work commitments will get in the way, but Nicola thinks they will keep in touch by setting up a WhatsApp group.
She told the new issue of Heat magazine: "I've done a lot of reality shows, and you fall in love with these people in such a bizarre environment, with no other distractions. You can never imagine your life without them.
"But when you come out, real life takes over. It's nice to see them at events, but that's it. So, I'm not sure, but there'll definitely be the famous WhatsApp group!"
Nicola is enjoying this year's series, which ends on Sunday (07.12.25).
I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! 2025 stars media personality Jack Osbourne, 40, comedienne Ruby Wax, 72, former Spandau Ballet bassist Martin Kemp, 64, rapper Aitch, 25, football pundit Alex Scott, 41, and Twitch streamer Angry Ginge, 24.
Comedian Eddie Kadi, 42, former EastEnders star Shona McGarty, 34, Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley, 49, TV personality Vogue Williams, 40, Celebs Go Dating's Tom Read Wilson, 39, and 46 year old Heart Radio presenter Kelly Brook complete the line-up.
Kelly - who was voted out of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! in the public vote on Tuesday (02.12.25) - wanted to do the show to change her "whole outlook on life".
However, some people have focused on her weight as she touched down in Australia in November, with a few trolls suggesting that she may be doing the programme to shed a few pounds.
And Nicola - who has been friends with Kelly since they began modelling together in 1996 - knew Kelly would block out the fat shamers because she is comfortable with her body.
Nicola said: "Like all glamour models who get older, you have to reinvent yourself, which she's done beautifully.
"She's always embraced herself at every stage of her life. At the time she was glamour modelling, she was one of the hottest women on the planet. She still is, so I'm sure she's comfortable with herself."
Kelly rejected her doctor's offer of the fat jab Mounjaro before she did I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! because she loves her curvy body, and Nicola thinks other women should also embrace their natural figure.
Nicola - who describes Kelly as a "fantastic role model" - said: "These days, most celebrities are on skinny jabs like Ozempic, everyone is shrinking before our eyes and not being honest about it.
"It's a really dangerous time for all women. It feels like we're being dragged backwards. Kelly is the sort of woman we should be looking up to.
"She looks unbelievable and is clearly not on the skinny jabs, which is fantastic."
